    Revenue amounts

    The budget Revenue page shows the calculated planned cost amount for each expense revenue and expense revenue groups (by type).  The cost amount of an expense a revenue is calculated by multiplying its payment amount by the number of payments. 

    Code Block
    CostAmoun = Number of payments x Payment amount

    The number of payments depends on the recurrence definition for that expense revenue and the portfolio's time frame.  Only payments revenues occurring (inclusively) between the portfolio's start and end dates (see Folio Configuration) are computed. 

    Note also that non-working days are not taken into account (e.g. a rent payment income won't be skipped if the incurrence date is a holiday).
